a quick tutorial on how to fire a flintlock pistol (aka a pirate gun!)
What I left out is how many "grains" I put in there. Grains is how they measure gun powder. For a blank like this i put in 20-30 grains. Just enough for it to go "bang" without a need for hearing protection. If I were to fire the musket ball from it, I would use 60-80 grains.
